Windows 7: What's your date of Windows 7 installation?

zdzichu · 12 Jul 2012

I'm just curious

. I want to know how long people live without format.

You can check this out by entering:

Code:

systeminfo

into cmd.exe.

There'll be Original Install Date.

Mine: December 18, 2011
Record by Zepher: August of 2009

Cheers!

March 27th, 2012 here, but it should be noted that was the date I built this computer. I'm not expecting to do any formatting whatsoever.

A somewhat more relevant piece (though not Windows 7) would be the install date of my other Windows XP machine, which is from May 12th, 2008. Haven't had to do a single format and it's still running strong~

1st of June 2011. Wiped out a previous 2010 installation due to a very stupid user mistake on my part. (PEBKAC)

Mine is 28th January 2010. I have been away for awhile and got a bit rusty but i couldn't get the info by running systeminfo.exe from the cmd. I tried to run a admin, than I switched users and went on to the Hidden Administrator still the info loaded but the window cut out before i could read it. I then used the SystemInfo.exe download and that worked fine. Can't think what I didn't do. It should work from the cmd, I think!

My install date on one of my laptops is January 6, 2010. On my primary laptop I use, June 3rd 2010. On the laptop in my specs, July 7th 2012. Right now it's using 8 RP, but I'm gonna take it down to 7 I think.

Yes. Should have worked.
Although you might have needed to actually use full name with extension

Most of us don't run from within \windows\System32.

go to a command prompt, carry out following one-liner:
wmic os get /all /format:list > %userprofile%\desktop\osinfo.txt

will put install date and much more in osinfo.txt on your laptop.

You will notice that the date/time format is a little unusual.
